This chapter is stuck, and I just finished writing it now...

=====================
Ever since Lin Guoxiang went to her uncle's house and caused Cui's dizziness, she has been really sick. She has suffered a small stroke. Now lying on the bed, she can't move her whole body except for lifting her fingers and turning her eyes. Even the words are vague, people do not know what she is talking about.But looking at her ferocious face, it is likely that she is speaking ill of Lin Guoxiang.

If the old lady was sick before, Mrs. Zhang would be the first to run to the scholar's house and drag Lin Guoxiang over to serve her, but since Lin Guoxiang had a quarrel with Widow Li at home at noon the day before yesterday, she didn't even want to see her. Seeing her again, let alone going to her house to drag someone.

Lin Guoxiang knew that Cui's stroke was caused by Xiucai who came back and told her. It turned out that Xiucai went to the school to teach the child. When Wang Liang came to find him, he was silent for a long time before hesitatingly told him about the old lady's illness.

At that time, Xiucai was silent when he heard his elder brother finished speaking. Although he felt distressed and worried, but for some reason, resentment came up the most.It’s fine if you endured it before, but these days there is no old lady making trouble in the middle, and their family gets along really well, although the soul of the current daughter-in-law has changed, but I watched her racking her brains with the two It's still fun for a kid to fight.

Thinking of the two children, there was a trace of warmth in Xiucai's eyes, but he lowered his head slightly, and Wang Liang didn't see it.

Seeing that the scholar did not speak, Wang Liang knew that he still had resentment in his heart and thought he did not want to see Mrs. Cui, so he was a little anxious, and his speech speed was much faster: "Little brother, mother is so sick that she can't even speak clearly. No matter how bad she is, she is still our own mother, if you don't visit her, she will be very sad."

Xiucai raised her head to look at her elder brother, and saw that his eyes were full of eagerness and sincerity, and for some reason, she suddenly remembered her former self, didn't she also persuade Lin Guoxiang like this?At that time, he wishfully thought that as long as he worked hard enough and endured enough, everything would be fine, but what happened during this period made him gradually change his mind. Just like Lin Guoxiang said, he used to be willing to compromise, but The results of it?
Seeing that the scholar was still silent, Wang Liang opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted by him: "Brother, I know about this, I will go to see the old lady after I go back and tell Guoxiang."

Wang Liang paused after listening to the scholar's words, but finally nodded and left in silence.

Xiucai watched her elder brother's back until he couldn't see him, then heaved a long sigh, and was stunned for a while before remembering that he had to go back to teach the child.

……

Xiucai thought about it on the way back, and when he was about to get home, he didn't think about how to tell Lin Guoxiang about the old lady's illness. The two of them had such a quarrel that she probably wouldn't let her go to see the old lady. Ken, thinking of Xiucai here gives me a headache. No matter how bad Cui is, she is still her own mother. Even if she is really sick, she will show her face, and she doesn't know what she will be arranged by the sister-in-law and the others.

Xiucai was suffering from a headache, and from a distance he saw many neighbors surrounded by his house, pointing fingers and not knowing what they were talking about, his heart skipped a beat, thinking: Sister-in-law and the others won’t be making trouble again, right?

Thinking of this, he hastened his pace and rushed over. As soon as everyone saw Xiucai coming back, he consciously gave way to him, so Xiucai saw the girl called Xiaohua who was cheated by Cui with the five taels of dowry last time, sitting in his house Weeping at the door, a pair of young men and women stood next to her. The man was in his twenties with an ordinary appearance. He was wearing a washed, white and patched coarse cloth shirt, with a dark face tanned by years of farming. While not saying anything, the young woman next to him who looked like a woman of eighteen or nineteen years old was poking the man's head with a look of resentment, and said in her mouth: "You elm bump! , your sister has married into this family and became a talented lady, why do you have to go back to your mother's house to ask you to support me, do you think our family has enough to eat or drink?"

After finishing speaking, she turned her head and scolded Xiao Hua who was sitting on the ground and crying softly: "Sister-in-law, it's not your sister-in-law who is talking about you, you are a talented woman now, you know that your mother's family can't eat anymore, and you still rely on your mother's house to eat, not to mention helping the family Stay, don’t you think it’s too much? And my talented uncle, I would like to ask him, as a man who can’t support his family well but wants his wife to go back to his mother’s house, what’s the reason for that?”

It turned out that after Xiucai ran away from home in anger that day, Xiao Hua sneaked out of Wang's house and ran back to her own home because she was afraid at night. , The new sister-in-law has already accepted the door, so the dowry gift cannot be returned, so the family members decided to send Xiaohua over. Anyway, they will not return the dowry gift. You can figure it out for yourself.It just happened to be heard that the scholar was back, so the new sister-in-law disregarded Xiaohua's crying and resistance, and ordered the honest elder brother to send him over, and then the current scene happened again.

When Xiucai heard this, he felt his temples throbbing, and after a long time of luck, he managed to suppress the anger welling up in his heart.As for the neighbors who were watching, they looked at the young woman who was talking to herself with half-smiles, hoping to see a good show in their hearts.At this time, for some good reason, he blew his whistle and booed: "Isn't the talented brother-in-law you mentioned is right in front of you now, and you don't even know him, it's really hard to say!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone burst into laughter.The scholar's face was flushed even more, so angry!

When the young woman heard this, she thought it was a joke and she opened her mouth to scold, but when she glanced at Xiucai, she narrowed her gentle eyes, wondering if this could be that Wang Xiucai?Seeing that he is different from other spectators, he should be right.

So his eyes rolled, his face immediately filled with a smile, he went to Xiucai's side to fawn on him and asked, "Is this my uncle Xiucai?"

When Xiucai heard this, a burst of anger went straight to her head, and she wished she could yell loudly: Who is your uncle, what nonsense are you talking about?
But he still endured it, moved back quietly and tried to stay away from the young woman as far as possible, and then said coldly: "I don't know you, let alone your uncle, don't mess with your relatives Ruined my reputation and that of your sister for no reason."

As soon as the young woman heard the scholar speak like this, she knew that she had guessed correctly, so she hurried forward and said with a smile: "Oh, uncle, it's really you, hehe, it's really great."

The scholar moved back again: "I told you I didn't know you."

Unexpectedly, the young woman who was still smiling just now changed her face: "Uncle, if you lose your temper with my sister-in-law, no matter how angry you are, you can't even recognize your daughter-in-law? Besides, our sister-in-law is an old lady. Even if you look down on us, you can’t say you don’t know us if you come back from a marriage with two silver coins, it’s against the rules for you to do this.”

Xiucai had a headache. She felt that she didn't read the almanac when she went out today, but unexpectedly encountered such a superb product, and her heart became more and more anxious. They all went to the door of the house, but Lin Guoxiang was nowhere to be seen. I don't know what she is thinking now Yes, if he misunderstood, he really jumped into the Yellow River and would not be able to clean up.

When I was anxious, my tone became more severe when I spoke: "I don't know you, don't talk nonsense here!"

The young woman shrank her neck in fright at the scholar's stern shout, and then she poked her neck and wanted to say something, but was dragged back by Xiao Hua's elder brother, and the woman finally stopped after cursing for a long time , but he still stayed at the door of the scholar's house and did not leave. Seeing his posture, he was determined.

Poor little Hua was so frightened that she lost her mind, she just sat on the ground and wept softly, her eyes and nose turned red.That poor little appearance can make people faintly feel pity.

But Xiucai doesn't have the time to sympathize with poor little flower right now, the person in the family has a bad temper, so he might not know why he is angry at the moment, he managed to get rid of his old face to stabilize him, and now there is another chaos He felt that his future was bleak because of the bad things about his in-laws.

If Lin Guoxiang really quarreled with Xiao Hua's sister-in-law like going to the eldest brother's house to make trouble, he would not be afraid, but he would be afraid that she would not make trouble. It would be terrible to go back to my mother's house.

Thinking of this, Xiucai didn't care too much, stepped into the yard in a hurry, and saw Lin Guoxiang sitting under the eaves, doing netting, saw him come in, glanced up and then lowered his head to continue the work in hand.

When Xiucai saw Lin Guoxiang's heart, he was flustered, and at the same time, he felt a faint disappointment in his heart. It turned out that he was overthinking, and he didn't care at all.

"That... today's matter..." Xiucai hesitated for a while and finally said hesitantly, but he didn't know how to go on, saying that he didn't know about Xiaohua?But he obviously knew it, but it was the old lady's own initiative to find him.Say it has nothing to do with him?But people are here for themselves.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see Xiucai saying anything. Lin Guoxiang couldn't help but raised her head and glanced at him, then said with a half-smile: "I said Xiucai, you are really lucky, why did I leave now?" Have you found this daughter-in-law in a few days?"

How could Xiucai fail to hear the sarcasm in her words, he couldn't help but froze, the expression on his face was so dry that he didn't know what to say.

Lin Guoxiang saw that he didn't speak, so she continued: "You didn't tell me that you had already found a wife. If I knew, I wouldn't come back brazenly and destroy the relationship between you and your husband. Look at how much it hurts."

Xiucai felt that he was going to be suffocated internally, but he couldn't refute it. Who made him not tell about Xiaohua in order to reconcile.

Lin Guoxiang saw Xiucai's gloomy expression that was about to hurt internally, so she stopped stabbing him, but it was really abominable for him to hide this matter. The neighbor looked at her eyes and she couldn't help but get angry: "Don't you feel that you have done too much? If you told me about this at the beginning, how could I come back with a cheeky face? Now I won't do it." There will be such a thing!"

Xiucai's defamation: I didn't dare to tell you because I knew you would say that.But he didn't dare to say this: "At that time, I thought that my mother was just playing around out of anger, and she would send me back when her anger subsided. I didn't know that he would take it seriously."

"Do you think I'll believe what you said?" Lin Guoxiang said coldly, "Damn it, if you don't believe it yourself and still use such nonsense to lie to me, do you really think I'm a three-year-old child?"
The scholar was stunned again, and after a long time, he asked Lin Guoxiang expectantly: "Then what do you say now, I will listen to you."

Lin Guoxiang glanced at him, and said coldly: "Let's reconcile, you married someone."

"I don't agree!" Xiucai immediately raised his voice when Lin Guoxiang said Heli, and refused without thinking, "Except for Helihe who asked me to accept that little flower as a junior, I will listen to you! "

Lin Guoxiang was also excited this time: "Are you still thinking of accepting a child? It's a beautiful idea!"

"Didn't I also say that I disagreed?" Xiucai felt a little wronged, he had never thought about it, okay, why should he be wronged like this?

"Now the person has been delivered to the door. Seeing how her brother and sister-in-law are like, she will definitely not let it go. I said that you will marry someone else if you disagree, but if you don't get along with me, I can't make you happy. Then you say What do we do now?"

Xiucai looked up at Lin Guoxiang, and after a long time he said slowly, "I know you must have a way, at worst I'll just listen to everything." After a pause, he hurriedly added, "As long as It's not reconciling or accepting that little flower, the rest is up to you!"

Lin Guoxiang rolled her eyes when she heard Xiucai's words, and suddenly looked at him with a smile: "I want you to cooperate in everything?"

Xiucai looked at her vigilantly: "As long as it's not the two things I just said or other things that go too far, I will definitely cooperate!" The new sister-in-law who was looking at Xiaohua just now is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so it is better to send them away as soon as possible. Otherwise, who knows if other troubles will arise?
Lin Guoxiang saw the vigilance on the scholar's face, she couldn't help curling her lips, and said, "Look at your expression, do you need to be so guarded against me? Thinking that such a kind person like me would treat me like a thief. It's really sad..." As she spoke, she still pretended to wipe away the tears that she didn't have at all.

The corner of Xiucai's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he almost couldn't help rushing over to strangle her to death.Damn girl, when is this still in the mood to joke?I can't wait to have a joke now?

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore." Lin Guoxiang suddenly put on a straight face, and said, "If you really don't like that flower, you can send it to your mother directly. Your mother hired her back with money. Yes, it should be returned by her. I think that family probably won't pay the dowry, so let her serve the old lady by her side for a few months to offset the money."

Xiucai pondered for a while, and said, "Isn't that going to work? Even if the old lady passed the test, there is still a sister-in-law. Can she support Xiaohua, an 'idleman'?"

"Xiaohua is your mother's favorite daughter-in-law. No matter how much your sister-in-law objects, she can't help it as long as your mother doesn't speak." Lin Guoxiang said, "Anyway, I can only come up with such a way. If you don't agree, then I will No matter what you like, it has nothing to do with me."

Lin Guoxiang really doesn't intend to care about this matter anymore, that Xiaohua's sister-in-law is a top-notch one at first glance, and it will definitely not be easy to get rid of it if it is stained, and she is not full of food, so she caused such trouble for herself.And it's okay to send Xiaohua to the old woman, disgusting and disgusting.

Seeing that Lin Guoxiang really didn't want to take care of her, Xiu Cai said, "Okay, I'll do as you say!" Anyway, I didn't recruit people, so let the old lady trouble herself.

So poor Xiaohua was pushed to Cui's side again.
